The lure of the Rapha store was not strong enough given the rain and wind – with just 4 riders heading out, and even they chose to avoid going to to the Mendips, with a very wet ride to Sweets but (rain) chapeau to them.
In a rare (possibly unprecedented ) outbreak of common sense the intermediate group choose to delay their start until 1430 when the sun was shining and the foul weather had passed – unfortunately this reduced the turnout, due to family commitments, but this able (allowed?) enjoyed a leisurely spin to Uphill
